This wasn't how she expected it at all. Really, over the past ten years she should have learned to stop 'expecting' things at all, because they never went the way she expected. Not the way Sasuke returned, not the end of the reign of the Fifth, and not…not Naruto.
The fact that her first kiss would be with Sasuke should have been the surprising part with that record, really. The fact that it differed from how she expected it to go down was the more normal and 'expected' part of it, and yet she still couldn't help a moment of reflection on the matter. It surely wasn't as special a romantic moment as she'd thought it would be.
Still, a ninja's life would be rather short if that ninja couldn't adapt. This wasn't nearly as grave a situation, but it probably applied anyway. If he was smart (and she usually felt he was) he'd adapt as quickly as she did when she pushed him abruptly into a nearby alley and pulled him down into a kiss.
If he didn't flail or react too badly, then they could escape their pursuers by the shinobi automatically discounting the hokage and the chief medic of the village as two lovestruck nin in an alleyway. It wasn't that she was shirking work, it was that no one really wanted to have Ibiki and Anko be the ones to drag them anywhere, even important appointments.
Actually…perhaps especially important appointments.
